The Lost and The Lost

The Lost and The Lost


Failing senses, A new release
A time to grieve and find some peace

Emotions strong, Hard to withstand
The longing for a helping hand

I wait in silence through the night
and hope that things will turn out right

The darkness comes, The world is cold
I'm trying hard to feel so bold

The pains arrive, It's hard to deal
With all the little things I feel

I sit and cry, I can't proceed
I'm lost without the things I need

I'm cold and quiet, All alone
Wishing that I would have known

How can the darkness so consume
I didn't think my heart had room

The silent crier never wakes
From simple sleep that never breaks

The time goes by and hearts will mend
The thoughts of a departed friend

The distance moves with steady pace
Reminding us of loving grace

And in the end we all will see
that nothing ends eternally

There cannot be an easy way
other than living day by day

Sometimes it's all that we can do
Until our thoughts become anew

Life goes on, or so it seems
and we'll keep living through our dreams

No task too great, no mountain high
When you are soaring through the sky

The daylight comes, the sunshine nears
To wash away the pains and fears

I close my eyes and once again
I'm close to my eternal friend.
